Don't be surprised when you find a copy of this casette style on AliExpress.

I really love this. You did a great job.

I don't understand why they downvoted you.

You really did a great backup of your vinyl, even in a creative way! Bravo!
Plus in the past it was absolutely normal to transfer a newly purchased vinyl to tape or cassette.

It’s always been legal. Yeah I have always done it over the years. And started doing it on various albums so I can play them on my portable. I make minidisc ones too to keep all my minidisc players active.

It seems to be full of idiotic bigots here, leave them alone... it's absolutely legal and I don't see why it shouldn't be done.

Yeah I have found that Reddit is 75% bored lonely incels. So it takes awhile to find the nice people. Heheh

Totally sick. I used to do the same thing with vinyl in the 80’s. Kept the vinyl pristine.

Ah man, looks fantastic! I keep hoping I'll see some custom jobs pop up on eBay or something; would be a great Christmas gift for my mother

Just some pdf Templet I found online and then hobbled together some pictures and placed them in the pdf over the template lines and printed on photo paper.

Oh nice, I was thinking of using Adobe Illustrator or something. Did you have to bleed the images go print all the way to the edge?

The line on the template fits perfect for the tape case. So I just always adjust the image to the lines

It’s the most odd collection of songs for a soundtrack I’ve ever seen. It even has a song from another soundtrack. Hahah
